Sort of... Fire III is only ever used to give you instant Astral II, likewise with Blizzard III until you get Magick and Mend III. You then get a single target rotation you stick with from level 40 to level 60. Firestarter being a nice trait and Thunder III completely replacing Thunder II.

Your AoE rotation remains the same from the moment you learn Fire II until you learn Flare (which is a closing spell).
